Since the protest broke out last month, we’ve heard not a peep from the women who gathered for the anti-Trump #womensmarch, who wore “pussy hats” to protest the so-called sexist president.

With her required head cover tied to a stick like a battle flag, the unknown woman stood at a busy intersection and waved the cloth in front of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.
